Technical due diligence for a Taormina luxury property

Key Takeaways

  • 👉 Technical framing and specific requirements.
  • 👉 Impact on permits, costs, and real timelines.
  • 👉 Design choices that reduce operational risk.

The "Agibilita" Certificate: Why You Can't Rent Without It: the difference is made by concrete technical choices, not generic statements.

1. Technical framing

Projects in Taormina demand a technical reading tied to the specific theme of the intervention. The first step is to identify which constraints are truly binding. A practical survey of access, existing MEP, and final use avoids surprises. This diagnosis reduces change orders and hidden costs. Design should start from the real problem, not a perfect layout. That is how feasibility is protected.

2. Permits and real timelines

Actual timelines rarely match theory; reviews extend schedules. Permits must accurately reflect the scope of works. Late changes trigger new checks and delays. Coordination reduces idle time. A realistic schedule is part of the business plan. Without it, margins collapse.

💡 Pro Tip: Before finalizing layout, verify access, constraints, and existing services; feasibility lives there.

3. Design choices that reduce risk

Technical solutions should prioritize maintenance and durability. Materials and systems must be selected on measurable performance. Compatibility with existing fabric reduces invasive works. Anticipating constraints avoids end-of-project surprises. Execution quality is as important as design. The goal is to minimize future operational risk.
